Greensboro Girl With Rare Brain Condition Defies Odds

GREENSBORO, N.C.— A nearly two year old little girl is a walking miracle.

Before Laila Reid was born, doctors told her parents she would be like other normal babies.

Doctors diagnosed Laila with Hydrocephalus. It’s a rare brain condition that causes a build-up of fluid in the brain.

“It was a lot to take in,” Laila’s Mom Mikala Reid said. “They wanted us to pretty much understand that she wasn't going to be able to learn wasn't going to be able to walk talk crawl it would take her a long time to lift her head like a regular baby.”
